God Knows Pain

You always hear people complaining that if there was a God he wouldn’t allow bad things to happen. People seem to forget that his son died. He knows a little something about pain imo.

Yeh but then he brought him back 3 days later, and apparently now doesn't leave his side.

If you're talking about the pain of having a son you didn't ask for that is permanently attached to you 24/7 then I can empathize.

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
You know what? In five years, I lost my dad, then my mom (to dementia, which is a terrible burden on your loved ones, and a terrible way to go), then my youngest daughter and her kids, then my younger brother, then my HUSBAND. Oh, and I found out I had to put my fourteen year old dog down the very day I found out I had cancer, which was after my husband died, and I also had to put down our other old dog a few months later. I also broke my dominant right elbow so badly that I have a totally titanium one! This was just a few weeks after my husband died. I'm sure I've left something out. I am still standing but I admit I feel a little numb at this point.

I can’t imagine that kind of loss. My heartfelt condolences.

So what if the physical body of Jesus died? Jesus did not die because Jesus is still alive in heaven.

God does not feel pain because God is not a human being. Humans feel pain from loss of loved ones. I have had similar losses to @Kathryn so I know how it feels. I have no idea how to move on after the loss of my husband two years ago because he is all I had. I have lost so many cats, too many to even count. I now have eight cats but I am about to lose one.
